1

Base coat

Lay the foundation colour down over primer, slightly darker than the final tone.

3

Layer

Rebuild the main colour on the raised areas, leaving the shade in the cracks.

4

Highlight

Pick out the upper edges and surfaces that catch the light.

5

Edge highlight

Sharpen only the sharpest edges for a crisp, finished look.

Details & accent colours

Everything else on the model - metals, skin, leather, lenses, basing and this faction's signature accents.

Metal — trim

Trim and bare plate. Basecoat steel, wash dark, then edge bright silver.

Metal — weapons

Bolters, blades and casings. Dark gunmetal, washed black, edged with bright steel.

Leather & pouches

Straps, holsters and bare wood. Mid brown, shaded, then drybrushed a lighter tan.

Skin & flesh

Faces and hands. Basecoat, a flesh wash into the recesses, then build the highlights back up.

Eyes & lenses

Lenses, eyes and energy. A bright spot colour that pops against the armour - dot it on and add a white glint.

Basing — earth

Groundwork. Earth basecoat, drybrushed bone, finished with your choice of grass, sand or snow.

Bull-mask bone

The masks are the model - basecoat bone, shade brown into the horn grooves, then bring the ridges back to near-white.

Gore & wounds

Glossy deep red in wounds, mouths and exposed guts - wet rot against the matt armour.

Butcher’s leather

Aprons, straps and cleaver grips in dark greased brown under the red. It should look like an abattoir uniform, because it is one.
